Zombie software needs serial number!
Snagged some Buffalo WiFi cards and they work under 9.2.2 on a Lombard with the AeroCard Universal install.
Per their 2002 website it looks like there is some arcane stuff: "serial number that locks to your MAC address of the wireless card that you're using. Enter the serial number...and immediately be validated. Each serial number is uniquely associated with one WLAN PCMCIA card"
